Early Life and Education
Rene Louis Alexandre Cabanel (1823 - 1889) was born in Montpellier France, and the first indication of his artistic skills was at an early age. He obtained his education at the most prestigious École des Beaux-Arts, Paris with a classical formal education for his brilliant profession.
